I hate Father's Day

Honestly I hate the whole concept. I do not want to have a whole day revolving around DH. Gah I hate it. Letting him sleep in and making him breakfast? Fuck that. I hate it. Helping the kids make him something and spending money on a gift? Hate that too. Ya I do it. Cuz my kids want to. But I do it for them, NOT for him. Nor do I tell him happy Father's Day or go out of MY way for him. I tell dd how to make what she wants. And damn i start feeling so grumpy having to do all sorts of nice shit for him.

Hate Hallmark holidays.

Adding my post here:
For the record I hate Mother's Day too. I hate Hallmark holidays period. I hate the idea that we're supposed to lavish all this attention on someone all day just because a company wanted to sell more cards. And now it's expected to spend money and time on this "holiday".

Yes he does stuff for me on Mother's Day, same as I do for him. Mostly for the kids sake. How he feels about it I don't know. I've never asked. But neither do I let on to him how much I dislike the Father's Day stuff.

My kids made daddy a grilling apron and a sharpie mug plus little hand print cards. We made him crepes for breakfast and will be taking it all to the bed to wake him up. Later he's going hiking with them (his choice) while I clean the house.
